Mojito Marker
Mojito × Permanent Marker
Mojito Marker is a niche cannabis cultivar that emerged in the early 2020s, characterized by its distinct lime and mint aroma. It is often noted for a sativa-leaning effect profile, balancing uplift with a sense of calm.
Appearance
Mojito Marker buds are typically medium-sized and ovate, with a calyx-forward structure that trims cleanly. Mature flowers often display lime to olive green hues, sometimes with light purple streaks under cooler temperatures, and are accented by amber pistils. The buds are known for heavy trichome coverage, giving them a frosted appearance.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Mojito Marker is dominated by a bright lime note, reminiscent of fresh lime zest or candy. This is complemented by a mint-herbal lift, evoking spearmint and crushed mojito leaves. A subtle floral undertone with hints of candy and ink is also present.
On the palate, the inhale offers bright citrus oils and a cooling sensation. The mid-palate transitions to floral, slightly creamy, and sweet notes, rounded out by a green, herbal mojito flavor. Lower temperatures preserve mint and citrus, while higher temperatures enhance the floral-ink finish.
Effects
Mojito Marker is generally described as having sativa-leaning effects, providing a sense of uplift and focus. Consumers have reported feeling calm and creative, with an energetic yet balanced experience.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
This cultivar typically exhibits high THC levels, commonly ranging from 22-28%, with total cannabinoids falling between 24-32%. CBD content is usually below 0.3%. Minor cannabinoids like CBG are often present, typically between 0.2-1.1%.
Key terpenes contributing to its profile include Limonene, Caryophyllene, and Linalool, alongside Pinene, Ocimene, and Eucalyptol. These contribute to its characteristic lime, mint, and floral aromas and flavors.
Growing
Growers report Mojito Marker exhibits medium vigor with moderate stretching during flowering. The plant develops dense colas that respond well to training and trellising. It is considered resinous and suitable for hash production, with attention to environmental controls recommended for terpene preservation.
Origins & Lineage
While no single breeder has definitively claimed Mojito Marker, it is widely believed to be a cross between a Mojito cultivar and a Marker-type genetic, such as Permanent Marker. This combination is thought to blend the lime-mint characteristics of Mojito with the candy-floral, soapy ink notes associated with Marker lines.
